Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 389 pages. This updated volume is of special relevance in light of the profound changes occurring within the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). China's desire to d evelop a military commensurate with its diverse interests is both legitimate and understandable. The challenge for U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM) is to understa nd how China will employ this growing military capability in support of its inte rests. The book addresses the uncertainty surrounding the potential direction of the PLA by examining three distinct focus areas: domestic, external, and techno logical drivers of PLA modernization; alternative futures for the PLA; and, Impl ications for the region, world, and U.S.-China relations. The analysis provides an insightful perspective into the factors shaping and propelling the PLA's mode rnization, its potential future orientation ranging from internally focused to g lobally focused, and how the PLA's choices may impact China's relations with its neighbors and the world. Audience: Military personnel, policy analysts, lawmake rs, and foreign officers in the Asia Pacific region may find many insights in th is book pertaining to the development of the Chinese People's Liberation Army un der the leadership of Chinese President, Xi Jinping. High school, community coll ege, and undergraduate university students pursuing coursework and research for United States 1945- Present, global studies, and world history classes may find this text helpful for classroom debates about the expansion of the Chinese milit ary role. Graduate students may find this work helpful for International Relatio ns, Chinese Studies, and Global Affairs coursework in the pursuit of a Master's Degree program in these areas.
